Hello Wilfred!

Tg's choice of image type doesn't seem very useful to me.  The  
pixelated-like image is too complex for easy comparison. A  
better system might be the series of emojis that Session uses  
for verifying contacts.

Why not?

Besides, a secret chat can only be launched from an established  
contact, so.. the chances are that it's the same person is  
pretty high.  :D   So.. perhaps there is practically no point  
in having the image comparison at all.
